Media Impact

One of my favorite rappers of all time is Lil'Wayne. In our time today he is known as one of the greatest rappers ever. The reason why I listen to these rappers today is simply because I just love the music, even though there's times were I prefer to just listen to R & B. Although he may be one of the greatest rappers to me, he is very double sided in our society. He is a loving father and husband, a great musician, an idol from growing up in the streets and  then to others just someone who goes against the law, has problems with drugs and alcohal, has too much tattoos, uses too much cuss words, and talks about sex and all these things in his music. To me, yes he may say innaprprioate stuff in his lyrics, but parents and and children should know what their listensning to, because it's to take it out of their lives at a young age. He really is great at what he does. Rap is an artfom, and hes very creative. He is one of the only rappers I've heard from that just makes music at the top of his head and doesn't have to write at all. Media has blew him up and many other rappers just because of their lyrics in their music, but we shall see the sales once his newest album releases this year, The Carter IV.

Media Autobiography

I use media everyday that’s where I get most of my information from, just like everyone else does from this generation. Out of the eight mass media’s, my relationship with the internet is very close. I use it every day, it’s not that I’m addicted; I just can’t stop using it. I use it to look up weather, check yahoo news, check ESPN for my sports, and check my e-mail account, check for my football team Dallas Cowboys, and then especially facebook. I would say in my life that I probably need the internet the most out of everything else. Just as close as internet would be for me I have to have television and radio, I love music and r and b and rap are my favorite. So as much as I can during the day I just leave on the radio. As for television, I get to record all my favorite shows on my on TV in my own room, so that’s where you can find me at during my spare time when I’m not at school.  But what I enjoy the most is going to the movies, especially with my girlfriend. I would say I probably go to the movie theaters two to three times a month. Sadly, for as such as reading, you won’t see or hear about me doing that at all. I don’t take my time to go read a book at all. But I do enjoy reading magazines and newspapers, because who doesn’t love to know about a little gossip or what’s happening in our government or city today. And lastly for recordings, as of all I know I just listen to my voicemails when people leave them for me. Because I don’t remember me using or listening to recordings.
